Uk Varg insurance ?!

[Cocopop]

In uk can only find 2/3 company’s that will quote and it’s 1300+ which is ridiculous.
Who’s got them insured here and what are you paying?
41yrs,full licence,locked garage etcetc why is it so expensive?
Only Paying 200 on a Tm and 180 on a Husqvarna.

same age as you - quoted £200 Third party only, £650 TPFT with MSM Insurance

Not that it would be of great help to you but for information in France AMV quotes under 300 €/year for fully comprehensive insurance for Varg EX.

Wthhh, UK Is ruined, in Poland for basic insurance for the ex it's like 30 Pounds lol

thats terrible price for UK... im wondering how many it will be in Spain, didnt know anyone who has it yet. Mine its supposed to arrive April 11, i will update here my insurance price

Some,most don’t recognise Stark as a manufacturer and some just don’t insure electric.
So far only x4 company’s are willing to entertain quotes 1780fc,1450tpft,1230tp

Be interesting to see when people start getting there orders if the EX here in UK will be any cheaper or easier to insure.
There generally looking at all electric bikes as high risk because of danger of accidents happening as people don’t hear you.

Give MSM insurance a ring , they have been helpful and a good price ! Even with 8 points on the licence

im from spain and my insurance charge me for the most basic 118€, and the most expensive, which covers theft and fire, is 364€, not bad at all

Has anyone found a company that will insure the supermoto for the road in the UK. MSM will only insure the EX version for the road.

Probably uninsurable in Uk like the MX seems now is.They took a while to do the EX’s.Maybe they’ll catch up eventually in case of the Supermoto.
For a while bikesure and a random N’ireland broker were the only ones to offer for the VargMX but steep at £1600, but they have since disappeared from all sites.
Iirc MsM also insured a couple people on here but now will only do EX.
Somethings changed at somepoint behind the scenes to do with powerdelivery/ride on CBT or licenseclass/rules and regs with the MX.

The industry seem slow or don’t want anything to do with ev bikes here wether on or off road tbh.

 

[Paulcol]

Yes no one in the UK seem to be interested so I will not be buying one I guess Stark is loosing a lot of customers because of this.

Wow sorry to hear that about the UK. I have 2 policies on my bike here in the US. My ev bike is covered by my homeowners when parked in my complex. I also have an extra motorcycle policy that covers fire, theft, damage and that is about $100.00 extra US per year.

I know all this because my 1st Stark was stolen from my garage and I was able to get it replaced.
